Missing requirements
The coding AI can only implement what was clearly requested. Important rules, failure paths, and user expectations may never have been defined.
Launch Inspector provides human-led requirements review, risk-based testing, defect reporting, and retesting for vibe-coded and AI-built applications—before your customers discover what was missed.
Built with AI. Inspected by 30+ years of software quality experience.
A polished interface and a successful demo do not prove that an application is complete, safe to use, or ready for paying customers. The most serious problems are often hidden in unclear requirements, edge cases, permissions, failed workflows, and changes that break something else.
The coding AI can only implement what was clearly requested. Important rules, failure paths, and user expectations may never have been defined.
The happy path works in a demo, but duplicate data, expired links, invalid inputs, payment changes, and recovery workflows remain untested.
A prompt fixes one issue and quietly creates another. Without regression thinking, the application can become less reliable with every change.
Your prompts, feature notes, workflows, pricing rules, user roles, and expectations are reviewed for completeness, ambiguity, contradictions, missing decisions, and testability.
The inspection focuses first on what could cause lost revenue, unauthorized access, incorrect data, customer frustration, or a failed launch.
Core workflows, negative scenarios, boundaries, permissions, data handling, error messages, recovery behavior, and likely regression areas are explored and documented.
Each material issue is prioritized with clear reproduction steps, evidence, expected behavior, launch impact, and guidance you can give back to your coding AI.
Corrections are verified, likely regressions are checked, and remaining risk is summarized so you can make an informed launch decision.
The exact scope is tailored to the application, its risk, and its launch stage.
Confirmed requirements, gaps, ambiguities, contradictions, untestable language, assumptions, and launch-blocking questions.
A practical record of what was tested, why it mattered, and how each important requirement was evaluated.
Launch blockers, major defects, minor issues, evidence, reproduction steps, expected results, and business impact.
Clear, paste-ready instructions that help you explain the required behavior to the coding AI without losing the original intent.
Verification that fixes work, plus focused checks for the kinds of regressions those changes may have introduced.
A concise assessment of what should be fixed before launch, what can wait, and what residual risks remain.
Launch Inspector is led by Michael R. Williams, a software quality professional with more than 30 years of experience evaluating complex systems, identifying defects, analyzing requirements, testing edge cases, and communicating release risk.
His career spans the full range of software quality work—from junior tester and hands-on test engineer to QA lead, principal-level responsibilities, and managing the test department for a large, multi-million-dollar Department of Defense contract.
Prices shown are starting points. Final pricing is confirmed after reviewing application size, complexity, user roles, integrations, and launch risk. Founding-client availability is limited.
A targeted inspection of one important workflow or concern.
A practical pre-launch review of requirements and the application’s most important customer workflows.
Broader testing for applications with accounts, subscriptions, permissions, sensitive data, or multiple workflows.
No. The service is human-led. AI may assist with organizing requirements, generating additional scenarios, documenting findings, and preparing reports, but experienced human judgment drives the inspection and final conclusions.
No. Prompts, feature lists, screenshots, notes, development chats, or a walkthrough can provide a starting point. Part of the inspection is identifying what is missing, unclear, contradictory, or assumed.
No responsible tester can guarantee that software is defect-free. A Launch Inspection reduces uncertainty by applying a documented, risk-based review and clearly describing the areas tested and the risks that remain.
No. Obvious authorization, privacy, and data-exposure concerns may be identified during functional testing, but the service is not a formal penetration test, legal opinion, regulatory certification, or guarantee of security.
That depends on the application. A staging or test environment, test accounts, and relevant prompts or requirements are preferred. Production credentials and real customer data should not be shared unless specifically necessary and appropriately protected.
